HE  first  Wilson  Rolling  Steel  Doors  were  installed  in  1876.  The  manner 
in  which  they  met  a  definite  industrial  need  won  them  immediate  recog¬ 
nition.  It  has  been  the  constant  study  of  our  organization  during  all  these 
widen  the  scope  of  their  usefulness  and  to  improve  upon  their  quality  and 
serviceability.  Today  they  are  in  successful  use  in  railroad  buildings,  warehouses, 
piers,  and  industrial  plants  throughout  the  country  and  in  foreign  lands. 

The  remarkable  durability  of  Wilson  Rolling  Steel  Doors  is  shown  by  the  fact 
that  installations  made  many  years  ago  are  still  rendering  satisfactory  service. 

They  offer  maximum  fire  resistance  and  discourage  theft.  Overhead  and  out 
of  the  way — they  afford  maximum  useful  floor  space.  They  are  easily  operated. 

All  gears  are  protected  against  exposure  to  the  elements.  The  slats  are  inter¬ 
locking  ;  in  case  of  serious  damage  new  ones  can  be  readily  inserted  and  the  damage 
quickly  repaired. 

It  is  advisable  to  make  provision  for  rolling  doors  at  the  time  the  plans  of  the 
building  are  being  considered.  Our  advice,  suggestions  and  preliminary  plans  are 
placed  freely  at  the  disposal  of  the  architect,  engineer,  contractor  or  owner. 

For  conditions  not  covered  herein,  or  for  other  information,  address  the  nearest

TYPE  M.O.  11 

Usually  used  for  large  doors  such  as  craneway  openings, 
railroad  track  entrances,  etc. 

Equipped  with  Wilson  motor  units  Nos.  1,2  orS, depend¬ 
ing  on  size  of  door.  Units  consist  of  motor,  reduction  gears, 
solenoid  brake,  limit  and  starting  switches  and  emergency 
hand  chain.  Motor  is  directly  connected  to  reduction  gears 


by  means  of  flexible  coupling;  transmission  of  power  from 
reduction  gear  to  door  shaft  is  accomplished  by  means  of 
roller  chain,  affording  minimum  strain  on  curtain  in  start¬ 
ing  and  stopping. 

Limit  switches  control  travel  of  door  in  either  direction. 

Illustration  shows  standard  equipment,  including  start¬ 
ing  switch  of  the  enclosed  safety  type,  externally  operated. 

When  the  door  is  to  be  opened  the  handle  of  the  starting 
switch  is  raised,  the  limit  switches  stopping  the  motor  when 
the  door  reaches  the  top  of  the  opening. 


To  close  the  door  the  position  of  the  handle  is  reversed 
and  the  door  stops  at  the  sill  by  action  of  the  limit  switches. 
No  further  attention  is  necessary.  To  stop  door  at  any 
point  between  head  and  sill  bring  switch  handle  into  a 
neutral  or  horizontal  position  and  the  door  stops. 

By  means  of  remote  control  equipment,  door  may  be 
operated  from  an  ofBce,  superintendent’s  desk,  or  other 
convenient  place. 

No  wiring  or  conduit  is  supplied.

Slats 

Big  4  slats  are  used  on  Wilson 
Standard  doors  for  openings  wider 
than  10'.  They  are  so  designed  that 
there  is  an  equal  amount  of  tnetal 
on  both  sides  of  a  vertical  line  drawn 
through  the  center  of  the  interlock¬ 
ing  joints,  thereby  distributing  fric¬ 
tion  in  the  grooves  equally — an  ex¬ 
clusive  Wilson  feature.  The  slats 
are  Zy%'  wide  and  Ihe  deep  corruga¬ 
tions  J/s  ",  provide  the  greatest  rigid¬ 
ity,  are  so  designed  as  to  protect  the 
joints  from  abra.sion  and  present  the 
same  appearance  on  both  sides. 
This  slat  is  made  in  Nos.  22,  20,  18 
and  16  U.  S.  Standard  gauges. 

Little  4  slats  are  similar  to  the 
Big  4,  except  in  depth  of  corruga¬ 
tion  which  is  5^",  and  are  used  on 
openings  up  to  10'  in  width  and  for 
W  ilson  Underwriter  labeled  doors 
for  exterior  openings.  They  are 
made  in  Nos.  22  and  20  U.  S.  Stand¬ 
ard  gauges. 

No.  2  slats  are  used  on  Wilson 
Underwriter  labeled  doors  for  ver¬ 
tical  shaft,  corridor  and  room  open¬ 
ings  (of  20  gauge  steel)  and  for  lire 
wall  openings  (of  16  gauge  steel). 

No.  2  Junior  slats  are  similar  to 
the  No.  2  and  are  used  on  doors  for 
openings  where  coil  space  is  limited- 
They  are  made  in  Nos.  22  and  20 
U.  S.  Standard  gauges. 


All  Wilson  slats  are  made  of  open-hearth  or  copper  bearing  steel,  electro-galvanized  with  .3  of  an  ounce  of  spelter  per  square  toot  of  surtace. 
Wilson  slats  have  malleable  iron  endlocks  to  prevent  lateral  movement,  and  to  provide  a  wearing  surface  on  both  sides.  Little  4,  No.  2,  and 
No.  2  Junior  slats  have  these  shields  so  shaped  as  to  prevent  smoke  and  flame  from  passing  through  grooves.

Crane-way  Doors 
Motor-Operated 

Construction  shown  consists  of  three  doors  with  liinged 
posts  separating  them  and  hinged  flaps  at  sides  to  close 
the  si)ace  above  the  crane  rail.  Doors  are  operated  simul¬ 
taneously  by  one  motor  unit,  illustrated  on  page  !i,  posts 
and  flaps  by  a  separate  motor  unit,  giving  clear  opening 
for  crane  to  pass  through  as  shown  at  right. 

The  posts  and  flaps  are  locked  and  unlocked  auto¬ 
matically  by  action  of  the  motor  unit. 

Posts  and  flaps  have  grooved  edges  to  receive  doors,  and 
below  them,  stationary  grooves  are  fastened  to  masonry. 

Entire  construction  is  supporteil  by  trusses  and  beams. 

It  is  nece.ssary  to  provide  proper  support  in  accord¬ 
ance  with  details  which  we  will  be  glad  to  submit.

Movable  Posts — Hinged  Type 


For  very  wide  openings  or  where  only  a  portion  of  the 
opening  is  to  be  used. 

Posts  are  made  up  of  plate  and  channel  to  form  double 
groove. 

When  in  a  closed  position  posts  are  locked  to  floor  with 
bolt  as  shown. 

Doors  can  be  operated  independently  of  each  other. 


This  construction  is  often  more  convenient  than  using  one 
large  door. 

When  doors  are  raised  the  posts  are  swung  parallel  to 
ceiling  by  means  of  rope  and  puUeys.  They  can  also  be 
made  to  swing  obliquely  or  in  the  same  plane  as  the  door. 
(See  pages  64  and  65.)

Wilson  Underwriter  Labeled  Doors 


On  the  following  pages  will  be  found  illustrations  of  Wilson 
Types  21  to  51,  inclusive,  doors  approved  and  labeled  by  tbe  Under¬ 
writers’  Laboratories,  Inc. 

These  doors  have  been  tested  by  the  Underwriters  and  are  made 
in  accordance  with  their  regulations  evolved  as  a  result  of  these  tests. 

The  special  features  to  which  attention  is  directed  are  baffle  plates 
in  the  hood  and  “fire-stops”  on  the  edges  of  the  slats  (see  page  37) 
which  prevent  smoke  and  flame  from  passing  through  the  opening. 

Where  required  the  doors  are  equipped  with  automatic  device, 
which  at  a  temperature  of  approximately  160  degrees  causes  the 
doors  to  close  by  fusing  of  one  of  two  links,  located  at  tbe  head  or 
side  of  the  opening,  and  near  the  ceiling.  On  fusing  of  the  link,  the 
shaft  is  given  suflicient  impetus  to  force  the  curtain  down  and  it 
closes  easily  on  the  sill  and  can  be  raised  without  difficulty. 

The  automatic  device  can  easily  be  reset  and  a  new  link  inserted 
without  removing  the  hood  or  dismantling  the  door.  Where  occa¬ 
sion  requires  a  governor  to  control  the  speed  of  the  curtain  can  be 
furnished  (see  page  26). 

Bottom  bars  and  grooves  are  provided  with  slotted  holes  and 
fusible  washers  allowing  for  expansion  due  to  heat  and  preventing 


buckling  of  door  or  grooves.  Bottom  of  groove  is  placed  above 
sill  for  the  same  purpose. 

The  Underwriters’  requirements  are  that  brackets  and  grooves  be 
either  fastened  to  wall  by  through  bolts  or  to  iron  inserts  furnished 
and  installed  by  others  (see  page  37  for  size  and  spacing).  Tbis  is 
subject  to  modification  by  local  board  ruling.  Brackets  and  grooves 
may  be  recessed  or  not,  according  to  requirements,  that  is  to  say, 
clear  height  and  width  of  opening  may  be  obtained  by  providing 
proper  recesses  (see  page  43  for  clearances  necessary). 

The  doors  may  be  manually  operated  by  handle  on  the  bottom 
bar  or  mechanically  by  chain  or  crank  gearing,  depending  upon  the 
type  and  application  (see  following  pages). 

On  page  6  are  given  the  limitations,  types  of  slats,  etc.  for 
various  types  of  openings  and  on  page  43  are  given  clearances  for 
all  the  vai’ious  types. 

For  conditions  or  constructions  not  shown  we  will  be  glad  to 
advise  or  prepare  special  details. 

If  any  door  is  too  large  to  bear  the  Underwriters’  label,  the  entire 
matter  is  submitted  to  their  inspector  and  a  certificate  of  approval 
may  be  issued.

'ryi)o  31 — For  openings  in  lire  walls.  Double  doors 
required.  Automatic  closing  by  fusing  of  the  links.  On 
fusing  of  the  links  the  shafts  are  given  sufficient  impetus 
to  force  the  curtains  down  and  they  close  easily  on  the

and  the  automatic  device  reset  and  new  fusible  link  in¬ 
serted  without  removing  the  hoods  or  dismantling  the 
doors. 

Doors  can  be  so  arranged  that  fusing  of  one  link  will 


close  both.  This  is  accomplished  by  passing  chain  holding 
links,  through  the  wall. 

Coils  and  grooves  on  face  of  wall,  giving  clear  height  and 
width.  Coils  enclosed  in  plain  D-shaped  sheet  metal  hoods.

Wilson  Underwriter  Type  31. 

Underwriters’  Limitations — Wall  openings  not  to  ex- 
(Tied  80  square  feet  in  area,  neither  width  nor  height  to 
exceed  12  feet. 


Centrifugal  governor  may  be  furnished  if  desired,  to  con¬ 
trol  the  speed  of  curtain.  It  is  revolved  by  the  curtain 
shaft  and  when  the  speed  of  curtain  becomes  excessive  the 
arms  are  forced  outward  and  expand  an  inner  brake  band 
and  by  the  friction  induced  the  speed  of  the  curtain  is 
controlled. 

It  is  operative  only  when  door  closes  automatically  and 
offers  no  resistance  to  normal  operation  by  hand.

with  your  requirements,  it  is  necessary  to  give  us  the  following  infor¬ 
mation:  (Send  sketches  showing  conditions  as  you  would  see  them 

facing  the  door,  the  curtain  coiling  toward  you). 

1.  Type  of  door — whether  Wilson  Standard  or  Underwriter  Labeled. 

2.  Method  of  operation,  whether  manually  or  mechanically  operated, 
and  whether  mechanical  operation  is  desired  on  right  or  left  side. 
Give  type  and  number.  See  pages  7  and  8. 

3.  Gauge  of  steel.  Slats  and  gauges  used  for  different  types  of  doors 
are  illustrated  on  page  9. 

4.  Side  of  door  exposed  to  weather  (if  any),  whether  on  side  on
